Abstract: |
Cornwall Archaeological Unit (CAU), Cornwall Council was commissioned by Mr Mark Dennis to undertake a programme of archaeological recording ahead of the extension of the Bude/Stratton Business Park. Previous archaeological recording of the access road for the park was carried out by HES Projects (now CAU) in 2011. The development was the subject of a planning condition (PA15/01760), which required that archaeological recording took place ahead of construction. In 2007 a geophysical survey of the area had been carried out (Johnson 2007) which revealed the possibility of a shallow ditch and some indeterminate ground disturbance in the immediate area examined. Several anomalies of potential archaeological significance were recorded elsewhere within the field. The watching brief at the Bude / Stratton Business Park did not lead to the discovery of any major archaeological features, it did however, result in the discovery of an old land surface which, based on the recovery of an assemblage of pristine flints, points to significant Late Neolithic / Early Bronze Age activity in the vicinity. |
